Are you serious, Clark? Try looking it up. Provide the caveat that it needs to be at a 4th grade level. "Physicists are lying, duhhhh."

I dont accept any conclusion here. No one has presented one that makes any sense.
Why does "it" have to make sense? Why cant it just be?

Why doesnt the earth just stop producing water and food since we are harming it?

A picture of something doesnt prove anything. Last time I looked in a telescope all I saw was a picture of something

Because if it just was then we wouldn't be having this conversation right now. If it just was then humans would just live life and not question it

I read abt a man that stood by his wife's side after she was caught molesting her teenage students.

It has. archaeological periods. You are wondering why life was created on earth that survived the ice age, etc?

What does that have to do with question I asked. The earth isnt a human.

There is no recorded evidence of the ice age

You said you were curious. It is very easy to look up this information.
I know you'll disregard this but here's some help.

The earth is a closed system. Everything we ever had, have or will have is already here. Your sleeping on the dinosurs and in 500 millions years another animal will be sleeping on you.

If planet earth just spawned from nothingness and overtime developed to support lifeforms, why do the lifeforms on this planet that spawned from the same nothingness not live forever?

So you believe we have created technology that can tell us stuff existed 13 billion years ago.

No one was there to see it so prove it.


Dude if you want to be absurdly obtuse I cant prove you are not a figment of my imagination either but what Im explaining is well known physics and astronomy.
Redshift and blueshift describe the change in the frequency of a light wave depending on whether an object is moving toward or away from us.

When an object is moving away from us, the light from the object is known as redshift, and when an object is moving towards us, the light from the object is known as blueshift. We can measure these frequencies. Couple that with our knowledge of lightspeed we can determine the approximate age of star we view. This is a very simple explanation.

So why cant they do the math to watch the comet take out the dinosaurs? We should be able to point a telescope at space and watch a giant comet approach

If a sourdough starter comes from flour, water, and wild yeast, why doesn’t my sandwich achieve immortality?


If stars form from collapsing gas clouds, why doesn’t my car run forever on air?


Finally, to make my point crystal clear, if humans arise from the same atoms as diamonds, why am I not both priceless and indestructible?
